The expertise of our local granite
workers is evident in all the cemeteries in Groton. From the tiny Gray family plot on
Glover Rd., (where Dominicus Gray was buried situated so that he could view his
house as he rose to heaven), to the grave site of the "sleeping
sentinel" in west Groton, our town cemeteries are beautiful and peaceful
places where a person can contemplate and remember Grotonís people and history.
